About the UDDI for BMC CMDB web services

In BMC CMDB, the UDDI Registry Server is based on the Apache jUDDI Registry Server. The BMC CMDB UDDI Registry Server supports multiple Remedy Action Request System users as registry consumers. 

UDDI Registry Server functionality and supported features

  • The local user (root publisher) of the server is local to the Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI) server, not external, and has administrator publishing privileges.
  • One specific Remedy AR System user for the Remedy Action Request System server that is linked to the BMC CMDB Core UDDI Registry Server can be designated as having administrator publishing privileges using that account's Remedy Action Request System credentials.

Note

The BMC CMDB installer uses the Remedy Action Request System administrator used for installation operations as this user, but you can change it to another Remedy Action Request System user.

  • All AR administrators for the Remedy Action Request System server that are linked to the BMC CMDB UDDI Registry Server have access with administrator publishing privileges using their AR credentials. 
  • All other AR users for the Remedy Action Request System server that are linked to the BMC CMDB UDDI Registry Server can have access to perform queries using their AR credentials.

New features in the UDDI Registry Server

  1. UDDI is upgraded from version 3.0.4 to version 3.3.7.
  2. Previously, UDDI depended on a configuration file called juddiv3.properties for any configuration parameter. This approach was changed by Apache for any 3.2.X or later versions, and they started using an XML file named juddiv3.xml. As a result, if there are any test cases which specifically check for the configuration file, then those test cases must refer to the XML file instead of the properties file.
  3. Previously there was no limit on the number of web services that could be published. In version 3.3.7, UDDI Registry server has started checking the number of web services being published, and there is a limit of 100 web services that can be published. 
  4. Additionally, a new feature called replication is added in jUDDI, which is  a mechanism for maintaining data ownership and data synchronization across multiple UDDI nodes. The configuration file name is root_replicationConfiguration.xml. But because in BMC CMDB, the UDDI Registry server has only one node, this feature is not enabled.
